Carbon-12 and carbon-13 are both stable isotopes of carbon. Carbon-12 makes up 98.89 percent of carbon in nature, while carbon-13 makes up only 1.1 percent of carbon.
The atomic mass of an element is the average of its isotopes, weighted by abundance in nature.
Isotopes were not invented - they exist in nature. They were discovered when the atomic mass of Chlorine was measured at 35.5
No radioactive isotopes of neon are ordinarily found in nature. All elements have radioactive synthetic isotopes, however.

Isotopes have a different amount of Neutrons. The atomic mass is the sum of Protons and Neutrons. Therefore having a different number of Neutrons makes the atomic mass greater. Or vice versa. Boom. Solved.

isotopes
Yes, weighted by how often the isotopes are found in nature.
This value is the atomic weight.

The weighted average for all isotopes that occur in nature for an element is its atomic weight listed on the Periodic Table of the elements.
There are no radioactive isotopes of boron that are ordinarily found in nature. All elements have synthetic radioactive isotopes, however.

Carbon can certainly be found in nature, but some of its radioactive isotopes are synthetic.
